Hi all,
I would like to share an issue I'm facing... I'm working with users who like IGV (from broad institute), others who like IGB (genoviz) and other simply use the UCSC Genome Browser to visualize profiles for ChIP-seq experiments.
It happens that there's no standard file format for all three platform.
Well, they all support bedgraph but this is definitely unsuitable for NGS data. IGV has TDF, IGB has Useq, UCSC has bigWig... is there anybody working to propose a standard (in the same way SAM has been introduced) ?
